Talk:Krasnoyarsk Krai

Nav template
While the title of the Krasnoyarsk Krai template unfortunately matches the title of this article, it lists nothing but the administrative divisions of the krai and was specifically designed to be the main template of the administrative divisions of Krasnoyarsk Krai article only. We don't place the main templates of all subarticles in the main article; doing so would result in template overload. A navigational template suitable for placement in this article would contain links to such subarticles as flag of Krasnoyarsk Krai, economy of Krasnoyarsk Krai, administrative divisions of Krasnoyarsk Krai, history of Krasnoyarsk Krai, politics of Krasnoyarsk Krai, and so forth. Since most of those articles do not yet exist, implementing such a template at this time would not be of much help to readers.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); January 17, 2013; 15:53 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Krasnoyarsk Krai
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Krasnoyarsk Krai's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "2021Census": From Kabardino-Balkaria:  From Buryatia:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 17:06, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Fixing references
, can you tell me what you mean when you say "the reference function" is not working? Also, it seems that the article uses at least two different populations from two different sources. Is that intentional? -- Mikeblas (talk) 04:19, 16 January 2023 (UTC)


 * The infobox for the Russian federal subjects is hot trash at the moment, and the call function for the 2021 census for the latest population figures is cited in the "ru-pop-ref" template, but it doesn't work. The reference for the 2021 census itself is provided within that latter template, but the infobox for the regions themselves doesn't pull them when given the appropriate text to do so. We have to use a manual method that you can see in the infobox that I added a moment ago, and it seems to work just fine now if you do it that way. That aside, the template itself already has the spaces for the 2021 census figures built in; all we need to do is plug them in with the workaround for the reference as I mentioned.

Third-largest city
At the beginning of this article, it is written that Krasnoyarsk is "the third-largest city in Siberia, after Novosibirsk and Omsk." On the Wikipedia page for Omsk, it is written that "Omsk is the third largest city in Siberia after Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk..." This seems, at best, ambiguous. At least one of these sentences should be changed. I leave it to those more informed about these subjects to determine which. Srigb (talk) 13:31, 26 September 2023 (UTC)


 * The article for Krasnoyarsk claims it is "the second-largest city in Siberia after Novosibirsk, with a population of over 1.1 million." I suppose the opening paragraph of Krasnoyarsk Krai should just say something similar. Srigb (talk) 14:26, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
